Shaman, you're contradicting yourself. In your first post, you complain about having too many deer and you don't know what to do with them. Several posts later, you say that the prior owner didn't have a problem because she let others hunt the property. You have it posted so only you can hunt there. There's nothing wrong with that since it's your land, but that is also the cause of your "problem". Let a few other trusted people hunt there and the population will go down to a sustainable level.
